who is nursing through their prego?

As if being prego and all the symptoms aren't enough add in nursing a 2 year old(constantly) to the mix to make you just want your body back lol.
Anyone else nursing?

I did twice and it ain't easy! But so worth it when your milk comes in and you're not totally in agony from being engorged!

Let me know if I can help - I have a lot of tips.

I did through my last one but I just don't feel like it, my boobs are too sensitive and I get annoyed and bothered somehow. Plus just feeling like crap and like every vitamin and nutrient I need for me is being sucked dry for baby and nursling lol. I don't see him weaning anytime soon lol. My last he must've not liked the taste ro something becasue he didn't nurse a lot while I was prego and then was basically weaned when babe was born nursing every now and then. This guy it's like he sees the end is near and is nursing even more than before. I'm glad my body didn't even start to ovulate until a couple months ago because I really believe in nursing but it would be super difficult w/ a younger child.
Oh sunflower you have a 9m old?? I can't imagine, do you have any help or family during the day?

My 17 month old is still nursing a little here and there. I've completely dried up, so it's just comfort nursing, but he's not quite given up totally yet. It's uncomfortable for sure! But I have a feeling he'll decide he's done very soon.

I nursed the last time when I was pregnant with dS2, ds1 one still nursed a lot but I had him night weaned by the time he was 2 because DS2 was coming. and well before that he had stopped nursing to go to sleep just because it didnt work for him anymore.
it sucked honestly, it was worth it, he completely weaned at 3-3/12 but while I was pregnant I couldn't stand him touching me. Luckily he wasnt completely obsessed.
This time around I can handle the hormones and touching more but my boobs are killing me and ALL ds2 wants to do is nurse. he is much more attached to it and hes no where near night weaning. its a full fit in the middle of the night if I dont let him nurse and I just can't deal with it. same with bedtime, has to nurse to sleep.

It is worth it when your milk comes in and you are engorged. And also with both kids when the milk came in they actually slowed down because they got full so quick. (after I lost the baby last time my milk came in because it was so late and DS2 slowed down A LOT). so I am hoping that happens again.

I was nursing DS3 when I conceived DD, but he self weened at 13 months old when I was 12 weeks pregnant, I assume because it changes in taste. However I really want to nurse DD all through this pregnancy and maybe even tandem nurse.

I did, we've only just weaned DS1 now DS2 is a few months old.
